All the Must-See Celebrity Looks From the 2025 Gotham Awards

The race to the 2026 Oscars gained momentum last night, not in Los Angeles but in New York City, as stars gathered for the 35th Gotham Awards. The annual event, held at Cipriani Wall Street, attracts a crowd of industry luminaries dressed to the nines. Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another cemented its Oscar front-runner status by taking home the award for Best Feature. Iranian auteur Jafar Panahi also had a big night. His film, It Was Just an Accident, won all three categories it was nominated. My Father’s Shadow actor Sopé Dìrísù emerged victorious in a crowded field that included Jennifer Lawrence, Rose Byrne, and Jessie Buckley to win Outstanding Lead Performance.

There was no shortage of glamour on the fashion front, either. Matthieu Blazy’s debut Chanel collection made a strong showing on the red carpet, with Kristen Stewart, Teyana Taylor, Riley Keough, and A$AP Rocky all stepping out in his designs—apt timing as Blazy unveils his first Métiers d’art show for Chanel on Tuesday evening in New York City.

Rocky, who was nominated in the Breakthrough Performance category for Spike Lee’s Highest 2 Lowest, showed up with the support of Rihanna, who, of course, slipped into a dramatic, head-to-toe Balenciaga look. Sentimental Value stars Elle Fanning and Renate Reinsve wore backless looks from Ralph Lauren and Louis Vuitton, respectively, while Julia Roberts reaffirmed her dedication to formal suiting in a striking purple Tom Ford look by Haider Ackermann. Jennifer Lawrence, nominated for her turn in Lynne Ramsay’s Die My Love, was also in a tailored mood, wearing a two-piece skirt suit by Dior.
